Religion, War & Ethics in Ypres

This tour visits the First World War battlefields of Flanders to consider the following topics: war, peace & conflict, prejudice & discrimination, euthanasia, the sanctity of life, pacifism, the "Just War" theory, conscientious objection. There is also the opportunity on this tour to examine places of worship.

Anne Frank & the Dutch Holocaust

This tour examines racism in the context of the Holocaust and the Second World War.
